Kevin Powers asks, anybody have good recommendations for a story planning app? Not scripting, but a good tool to put story pieces together.
First of all, when they said screenwriter support, I thought you were gonna be giving me the support. I didn't know it was the other way around.
I've actually never heard of a story planning app. That might be showing my age.
Hi, this is Aaron Sorkin, and this is Screenwriter Support. All right, Holly Jack.
People who write stuff, how do you approach second drafts? Blank page and start again?
Amendments to what you've already got? Any thoughts/tips would be appreciated.
Yeah, great. Second drafts are really important.
A friend of mine once said about me that I don't write scripts, I rewrite scripts. And here's what he meant.
In the process of writing the first draft, by the time you get to the end, you've sort of discovered what the movie is about. Because it may not end up, that first draft, being about what you thought it was gonna be about when you started writing it.
You plotted a course to go due north, but as you were going, you started going a little bit east, and then a little bit more east. And when you end up you're going northeast.
